Dr. Satish Bukkaptanam Dr. Satish T. S. Bukkapatnam’s research in smart manufacturing addresses the harnessing of high-resolution nonlinear dynamic information, especially from wireless micro-electromechanical systems sensors, to improve the monitoring and prognostics, mainly of ultraprecision and nanomanufacturing processes and machines, and wearable sensors for cardiorespiratory process prognostics. His research has led to over 160 peer-reviewed publications (101 published/accepted in journals and 68 in conference proceedings); five pending patents; $6.5 million in grants as PI/Co-PI from the National Science Foundation, the U.S. Department of Defense and the private sector; and 17 best-paper/poster recognitions.
